Jet Ski Operator Negligence
Personal watercraft, such as those sold under the Jet Ski name, are an increasingly common presence on lakes and waterways. They offer leisure seekers an opportunity to race, ride, or relax on their own without requiring a license or any particular expertise. Unfortunately, the lack of such requirements means that Jet Ski operators are particularly likely to act in a manner which exposes others to a risk of serious injury in the event of an accident.
If you have been hurt due to a PWC operator’s negligence or recklessness, you may be able to seek financial compensation to address medical bills, pain, suffering, and other damages incurred. To discuss your potential case with a passionately committed legal advocate, contact the San Antonio personal injury attorneys of Chris Mayo Injury Lawyers at 210-999-9999 today to schedule a free consultation.
Consequences of PWC Rider Negligence
Jet Skis are able to move and maneuver at relatively high speeds, often much faster than a rider recognizes. This makes the potential effects of a collision more severe than they would be in a slower crash involving a small boat. Consequences of PWC rider negligence or recklessness may include:
- Operating a Jet Ski at excessive speed
- Failure to avoid swimmers in the water
- Collisions with piers or other boats
- Misjudging necessary stopping distance or turning radius
